In the September 21st issue of OutWeek, the magazine contacted Frito Lay and
asked them to comment on the suggestion that their "WOW" brand potato chips
could improve anal sex.
""WOW" chips contain Olestra, an artificial fat that the body can't absorb,
and which alledgedly lubricates the rectum.
In the interview, the magazine asked :
"Would you say that eating a whole bag of 'Wow' potato chips in one sitting
could help lubricate a person enough to improve anal sex?"
To which a vice-president for Frito Lay, Jim Murray, responded:
"(pause) It's not something we have considered, but if it were true, it might
be an angle we might play up in certain segment-targeted ads. Who knows?
(laughs)"
I found this response to be not merely glib, but repulsive and insensitive to
Frito Lay's consumers who find sodomy to be sinful.
I am urging all people of good conscience to contact Frito Lay and let them
know what they think of that remark.
Frito Lay'sc ustomer service number is 1-800-352-4477 (ask for operator 100)
Please don't let this affront go unquestioned.

In case you didn't read your own quote.. there were "laughs" involved in
those comments during the interview. It was probably little more than a
dirty joke between the two. Even if it was somehow a serious question
(doubtful), I agree with others.. if you don't like gay sex... don't have
gay sex. If you don't like church, don't go, if you don't like lotto, don't
play.... does this sound like, uhhhh, l o g i c ?
I'm amazed at folks who get so easily "upset" over stuff like this. Do you
spend your entire days, readying gay magazines, or looking for hidden
penises on t.v. or George Washington paintings *(see blurb below)*, or
purses carried by a tellie tubbie ??? People.... get a life, PLEASE, get a
life!
I will call that 800 number you posted as a crusade though... to THANK them
for having such a great sense of humor.
** blurb ** Has anyone else heard about the Cobb County school board
removing the famous painting of George Washington crossing the Deleware
River from textbooks? A "tragic" parent thought the children would mistake
George's watch holder for two testicles hanging out of his pants.....
they're ripped out this painting from many of the schools now. Oh, let us
all just throw up now.

On a similar note, there's a big statue of William Penn on top of one of the
government buildings in Philadelphia. William is holding a scroll. But if you
look at it from the right angle, it appears that William is proudly holding his
weenie. And even better: when it's raining, a steady stream drips off the end
of it. We need to send some of our Georgia school board types up there to "fix"
that. Who knows how many children have been ruined?

Anal sex isn't sinful - just kinda gross.
I agree. I don't see anything wrong with what the
Frito guy said. 8-ball sounds like a fanatic of
some sort.

I heard about this. Couldn't believe it (well, I guess I
could). The thing that really got me even more was one
brilliant comment from one of our brilliant parents of
today. She said the thing that upset her most about the
painting was that Washingtion was *standing* *up* in the
boat without a life vest! And she thought that was the
wrong message to send her kid! Well, there you have it.
We have a famous painting portraying the Father of
America in a famous event, and what does this dim bulb
parent have to say about the whole thing? She says
it's a bad picture 'cause the man isn't wearing a life
vest while standing in a boat...I hate to think of the
budding offspring of this creature.

Sadly, there's no life to be gotten for them. Instead, they will annoy the
lives that WE have with petty whining, complete ignorance and general
time-wasting stupidity. These are the people who don't get it, won't get
it, and can't get it. They contribute most greatly to the suck factor of
this country, and the intellectual decay of the citizens in it (i.e.:
thought-free twitness like striking Evolution from textbooks and the
terrible thought that George Washington may have crossed the Delaware with
his testicles out, which you mentioned.)
There is a wonderful book called "Culture of Complaint" by Robert Hughes.
It's a great book for anyone sickened by the antics of the shit-for-brains
caste that make those with functioning minds cringe. I think you'd like it
although it will probably make you mad that a moronic minority can be so
influential in spreading stupidity from sea to shining sea.

Hey all to call your attention to the above... at first it is said:
'.. I recently heard about ...'
then follows several lines later:
'... In the interview, the magazine asked :'
Either they heard or read, which is it? Me thinks it is a closet reader
and chip abuser to me!
LOL
Just my $.25 worth here...
